Monique Lhuillier

Monique Lhuillier designs capture the essence of sophisticated luxury by provoking femininity, allure and glamour that have made her renowned in
the world of design. Monique’s love for fashion has been a lifelong passion. Growing up in the Philippines, Monique was influenced by her mother’s
elegance and personal style. Encouraged to pursue her dream of becoming a designer, Monique moved to Los Angeles to attend the Fashion Institute
for Design and Merchandising.

While studying at FIDM, Monique met her husband, Tom Bugbee. In 1995, while searching for her wedding gown, Monique was surprised by the lack of
fashion-infused bridal options. It was this realisation and the desire to offer women modern, couture designs that led Monique to create her own
designer label. A year later, Monique and her husband founded the company and launched their first bridal collection.

What started as a young girl’s interest in fashion has grown into an acclaimed international design house. Monique brings sophisticated, feminine
and luxurious creations to women who seek the best couture design.

Monique and Tom live in Los Angeles with their two children, Jack and Sophia. Monique devotes much of her time to philanthropic efforts and is active
within her community.
